Yes, of course, I miss it. But let's remember that TV itself is a vastly different medium than it was during the late 20th century (wow, what an original observation, huh?). Let's just come out and say it, we all miss TV the way it used to be.
I do think anthropologists, say 75-100 years from now, will find TV Guide as good a barometer as any newspaper of public attitudes and preferences. They will see how pervasive the influence of the "idiot box" was between the mid-1950s and the mid-2000s, when the internet and wireless technology began to supplant TV among younger generations.
